You would never have seen this when Frank Rizzo was mayor..not for long, anyway.
The guy who confronted the two Black Panther was in a white dress shirt was a poll watcher and was interviewed by Rick Leventhal of Fox News. He was a tall Italian-American Philly guy.
Leventhal asked him about the Panther with nightstick and if he was concerned. He said “I was in the Army so that does not bother me.” He was very brave to stand up to these thugs. Somehow I think Obama will not get too many votes in the Philly suburbs especially from Italian-Americans.
